REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION ON DEFENDANT'S ADMISSIONS TO VIOLATIONS AS SET FORTH IN THE PETITION FOR VIOLATIONS OF SUPERVISED RELEASE

FRANK J. LYNCH, Jr., District Judge.

THIS CAUSE having come on to be heard for a final evidentiary hearing on August 21, 2014, in respect to the pending Petition Alleging Violations of Supervised Release and this Court having conducted a hearing, this Court recommends to the District Court as follows:

1. The Defendant appeared before this Court on August 21, 2014, for a final hearing in respect to a Petition Alleging Violations of Supervised Release alleging the following violations:

Violation Number 1 Violation of Mandatory Condition, by unlawfully possessing or using a controlled substance. On or about June 4, 2014, the defendant submitted a urine sample that tested positive for the presence of cocaine in our local laboratory, and subsequently confirmed positive by Alere Toxicology Services, Incorporated. Violation Number 2 Violation of Mandatory Condition, by unlawfully possessing or using a controlled substance. On or about July 2, 2014, the defendant submitted a urine sample that tested positive for the presence of cocaine in our local laboratory, and subsequently confirmed positive by Alere Toxicology Services, Incorporated.

2. After consultation with his attorney, the Defendant announced to this Court that he wished to admit Violations Numbers 1 and 2 as set forth in the Petition. This Court questioned the Defendant on the record and made certain that he understood his rights in regards to an evidentiary hearing in respect to the alleged violations. Further, the Defendant acknowledged that he understood his rights in that regard and further understands that all that will remain will be for the District Court to conduct a sentencing hearing for final disposition in this matter.

3. The possible maximum penalties which the Defendant was facing were read into the record by the government and the Defendant stated that he understood those penalties.

ACCORDINGLY, based upon the Defendant's admissions to Violations Numbers 1 and 2 of the Petition under oath, this Court recommends to the District Court that the Defendant be found to have violated his supervised release in respect to Violations Numbers 1 and 2 as set forth in the Petition and that a sentencing hearing be set at the earliest convenience of the District Court for final disposition of this matter.

The parties shall have fourteen (14) days from the date of this Report and Recommendation within which to file objections, if any, with the Honorable K. Michael Moore, the United States District Judge assigned to this case. Pursuant to Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure, Rule 59(b)(2), failure to file objections timely waives a party's right to review and bars the parties from attacking on appeal any legal rulings and factual findings contained herein.

DONE AND SUBMITTED.
